Toddler sacrificed live on Christmas Day

2009-12-26 Welkom/Thabong - The badly mutilated body of 3-year-old toddler Onele Galata was found on Saturday, just hours after she was reported missing to Thabong police. The little girl went missing on Christmas day. She was grossly mutilated, with multiple stab wounds to her right eye, right side of the mouth, over the left ear, chin, neck, right ribs and middle chest – and her genitals were removed.

Her intestines were protruding from her little body. These injuries all indicate that the child was undoubtedly the victim of a so-called ‘muti-murder’, in which her body parts would have been cut out while she was alive ‘so that her fear and screams increase the potency of the medicine’.

------------------------------------------

Picture: the vast majority of ‘traditional healers’ are herbal doctors like this man in Pretoria who would never make medicine from human body parts and reject this inhumane practice. However the practice still persists throughout South Africa and recently, in the run-up to the World Cup 2010, the muti-murders have increased dramatically.

-------------------------------------------

Such body parts usually are ‘ordered’ by ‘traditional healer’ who do make very expensdive ‘good-luck medicines’ from such human flesh and would buy the ‘harvest’ from the child’s murderers.

Officially, an annual 200 ‘muti-murders were reported to the SAPS last year –although these statistics are not maintained in seperate categories and are grossly inaccurate: unofficially it has been reported by medical authorities that at least one child a day is slaughtered in this way in South Africa – sometimes, especially where males are left alive after genital mutilation, these lives can still be saved if they can reach the trauma units of public hospitals in time.

Government crackdown on 200+ annual muti-murders? The South African government, together with the Council for Traditional Healers, claims it wants to stamp out the witchcraft-related trade in human body parts, to which many children succumb. The harvesting of body parts is usually done while the victim is alive – carried under the guidance of a traditional healer . However, this murky underground world of witchcraft is particulary difficult to investigate because many police officers also fear arresting or questioning the practioners of witchcraft.

Whites increasingly targetted by harvesters of witchcraft-body parts: While some 200 to 300 'muti' (traditional medicine) related killings are reported during an average year in South Africa, whites usually weren’t targetted as frequently before 1994 as they are now. The organisation Doctors For Life - representing a large numbers of medical doctors, dentists, veterinaries and other professionals – started warning from 2004 that South Africa’s legalisation of African witchcraft was very dangerous: read law "Traditional healers should be kept out of South Africa's health care system because traditional medicines were potentially harmful to patients,' they warned. It is also seen inside the political system that traditional healersyield great political power behind the scene with ruling-party high-level officials. DFL predicted that the Bill would provoke more so-called "muti" murders. Many healers do share the belief that "human tissue can make powerful medicine," the doctors' organisation warned. The Doctors for Life campaigners were correct: ever since the new Act was adopted and ‘traditional healers’ were placed on a legal par with medical practitioners, a gruesome, thriving trade has grown up in the trade of human body parts. A large variety of body parts are being harvested: penises, eyes, noses, vaginas, breasts, heads and limbs - with the hapless victims preferably screaming and fully aware. The 'traditional healers' who order these body parts are almost never prosecuted, even though some victims survive the mutilation see here The live harvesting is necessary, they say, because the victims' pain and fear 'increases the power of the muti.' Besides the fact that whites also are increasingly mutilated while alive and their body parts harvested for muti before they are slain, fears are also growing among white South Africans that they will increasingly be forced to submit to the local-level political rule of the traditional leaders and their witchdoctors. This worry was first raised in 2008 -- in the following debate between a Boer and a black resident who asked why whites shouldn’t submit to ‘traditional tribal customs’ on this video: http://www/youtube.com/watch?v=FD6Nlok93ww&sdig=1

Unnamed Dutch tourists breast, hand removed after car accident (we know the victims’ names but withhold these to protect the family) 20090621 Acornhoek Mpuma, two men were arrested at traditional healer’s shop trying to sell the body parts. On July 17 2009 a 48-year-old man accused of ‘violating a corpse and selling human body parts” was denied bail at the Acornhoek Magistrates' Court .The famous South African ‘muti-killer-hunter,’ captain Leonard Hlathi said Philemon Batulekile Baloyi was one of two men arrested for the crime in June. Baloyi was caught after an “inyanga,” (traditional herbal healer) who he tried to sell body parts to, alerted police. The suspect was found in possession of a white woman's breast and a manicured left hand. "He told police that he received the body parts from a certain man at a funeral parlor, who was also arrested.The funeral home's official did not deny that they had arranged the shipment of the bodies of two Dutch tourists, a mother and daughter who had died in one accident in Lydenburg in May, exactly as was described by their arrested ex-employee. Two other members of the same family, a father and son who ran a hotel in a small Dutch town, also were seriously injured in this crash.Baloyi wanted to be paid 800 Euro’ for the body-parts. He in turn had bought the body parts for 80 Euro from Mr Ben Mongadi, 35, described as a part-time employee at a funeral parlor. http://censorbugbear-reports.blogspot.com/2009/11/farm-murders-names-dates-sources.html

The term "genocide" was coined by legal scholar Raphael Lemkin in 1943, writing:

'Generally speaking, genocide does not necessarily mean the immediate destruction of a nation, except when accomplished by mass killings of all members of a nation. It is intended rather to signify a coordinated plan of different actionsaiming at the destruction of essential foundations of the life of national groups, with the aim of annihilating the groups themselves.

The objectives of such a plan would be the disintegration of the political and social institutions, of culture, language, national feelings, religion, and the economic existence of national groups, and the destruction of personal security, liberty, health, dignity and lives of the members of such groups...
